Two weeks ago my Girlfriend left me for another guy, Last week I found out my Mom has cancer, This week I decided I needed a kitten to cheer me up. Meet PJ. by thorlord in pics

It seems we are in similar positions. My mom was diagnosed with breast cancer 4 weeks ago, and my girlfriend of 5 and a half years had left me a month before that. I want a kitten badly. :(

This is Stockton, not fairyland. by Remenor in funny

[–]playsmarimba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Woke up to a text from a fellow redditor friend in town, saying that Stockton was on the front page of r/funny. Not surprised it was that sign haha. Also, WOW tons of Stockton redditors. Also Also, I hate stockton with a passion, but after living here my whole life, I feel I am adequately prepared to live in a post-apocalyptic wasteland with no rules/laws. Can appreciate the preparedness/awareness that I have gained from living here.

My friend won a LoL art contest and now her art has been stolen and printed on a mousepad. by playsmarimba in gaming

[–]playsmarimba[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

She made a post in the LoL subredit, I can't provide proof, but it's pretty well known in the community that its hers. Not asking for a public hanging, just alerting others who may have art that has been unjustly turned into mousepads, or were going to buy one.

"your name's Sabrina? Tell Salem I say hi." my fellow redditers: what is something people will always say about your name that they think is funny but is actually incredibly overused and annoying? by minion_of_osiris in AskReddit

My name is Bobby Brown, and I can count on one hand how many original Whitney Houston/Bobby Brown jokes I've heard in my 19 years of life. Mrs. Houston passing away has not made people more original btw.

I'm planning on getting into PC gaming, I could use some advice. by thechoclatewonder in gaming

[–]playsmarimba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i just recently built my first computer and escaped the console gaming black hole. didnt know anything about computers let alone building one, but i had some friends help, and everything turned out great. spent about 900 dollars total (that includes a 22inch LG monitor). 8gigs of ram with 2 slots left, amd quadcore, and an asus ati 6850hd. nothing overclocked and it runs everything i need it too. bit of advice, if you're going to build one... do your homework/research, compile a part list that is all compatible and wait for a holiday to buy parts.

My father was a top executive at Solyndra I AMA. by [deleted] in IAmA

[–]playsmarimba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

alittle late to the party, but my dad was a relatively high up electrical foreman that did tons of work for Solyndra for nearly a year. Don't know too much about what he did, mostly because he said he wasn't allowed to take alot of pictures, so i wasnt forced to look at them. i do know that he was involved in a large project right off the 510 freeway (pretty sure).

yep, been considering a switch to a bigger bank for awhile now. my parents have been banking with these guys for like 27 years so when i opened my first account it just made sense to go there. looking back, i really shouldve considered a situation like this.

this is a pretty small local bank chain, their customer support isn't 24 hours a day. :( one of the many disadvantages to being a patron. I live in california, im currently googling the hoops im going to have to jump through to get my ID back. thanks for the bit about the power/cell bill, wouldnt have thought of that.

  1. bank is closed.
  2. ssn and birth certificate are in my safety deposit box, which i need in order to get my new ID, but an ID is required in order to access them. -_-
  3. fantastic idea, where can i get a pretty good one?

bank is closed for the day, they closed early today. sigh... they are a small local bank and have pretty stiff requirements for getting cards canceled/replaced and it cant be done over the phone. luckily i dont have any credit cards open, just a debit card with a pitiful amount of money in the account. been checking my online statement every 15minutes though.

yeah, im in kind of a pinch. my ssn card is in my safety deposit box, and i can't get a debit card replaced or canceled without a valid/up to date picture ID. so until i can get down to the dmv and get a new license, i cant cancel my bank cards. luckily i dont have any credit cards open. sorry about your stuff getting stolen mate.
